  • OFDM Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing
  • BPSK is usually appropriate for low-cost passive transmitters, and is usually used in RFID standards, for example which have been adopted for biometric passports, credit cards and many other applications.
  • BPSK is a basic function producing a signal out of a cosine wave.
  • An example to a produced BPSK signal may look as the in-phase signal component denoted by I in Fig. 1.
  • the data-stream represented by the signal is shown above the signal by 1 or 0.
  • QPSK uses four points on the constellation diagram, equi-spaced around a circle. With four phases, QPSK can encode two signals I and Q, per one symbol (as shown in Fig. 1).
  • the in-phase signal component is denoted by I and the quadrature signal component is denoted by Q.
  • QPSK may be used either to double the data rate compared to a BPSK system while maintaining the bandwidth of the signal or to maintain the data-rate of BPSK but half the bandwidth needed.
  • the QPSK modulated signal is shown in Fig. 1.
  • the two carrier waves are a cosine wave and a sine wave.
  • the odd-numbered signals have been assigned to the in-phase signal component I and the even-numbered signals to the quadrature signal component Q.
  • the total signal— the sum of the two components— is shown at the bottom. Jumps in phase can be seen as the PSK changes the phase on each component at the start of each signal-period.
  • the binary data stream of the combined signal is shown beneath the time axis.
  • the binary data that is conveyed by this waveform is: 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0.
  • the odd signals that contribute to the in-phase component are 1 0 0 1.
  • the even signals that contribute to the quadrature-phase component are 1 0 1 0.
  • Offset Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying is a variant of phase-shift keying modulation using 4 different values of the phase to transmit
  • the timing of the odd and even signals is offset by one signal-period, or half a symbol-period, so that the in-phase and quadrature components will never change at the same time. This will limit the phase-shift to no more than 90° at a time. This yields much lower amplitude fluctuations than non-offset QPSK and is sometimes preferred in practice.
  • the phase between two successive received symbols may be compared and used to determine what the data must have been.
  • the scheme is known as differential phase-shift keying (DPSK).
  • DPSK differential phase-shift keying
  • the data can be modulated onto the phase of a laser in a differential way.
  • the modulation is performed by a laser which emits a continuous wave, and a Mach-Zehnder modulator which receives electrical binary data.
  • the laser transmits the field unchanged for binary T, and with reverse polarity for ⁇ '.
  • the demodulator consists of a delay line interferometer which delays one signal, so two signals can be compared at one time.
  • a photo diode is used to transform the optical field into an electric current, so the information is changed back into its original state.
  • Amplitude-Shift Keying is a form of modulation that represents digital data as variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave. In ASK, the probability to make an error increases if the number of levels amplitude or the power of noise becomes greater.
  • Polarization mode dispersion is a form of modal dispersion where two different polarizations of light in a waveguide, which normally travel at the same speed, travel at different speeds due to random imperfections and asymmetries, causing random spreading of optical pulses.
  • a PMD compensation system uses a polarization controller to compensate for PMD in fibers. Because the PMD effects are random and time-dependent, this requires an active device that responds to feedback over time.
  • the pulse spreading effects correspond to a random walk, and thus have a mean polarization-dependent time-differential ⁇ (also called the Differential Group Delay, or DGD) proportional to the square root of propagation distance L:
  • DPMD is the PMD parameter of the fiber, typically measured in ps/Vkm, a measure of the strength and frequency of the imperfections.
  • Group velocity dispersion causes a short pulse of light to spread in time as a result of different frequency components of the pulse travelling at different velocities.
  • GVD is often quantified as the group delay dispersion parameter. This makes dispersion management extremely important in optical communications systems based on optical fiber, since if dispersion is too high, a group of pulses representing a signal-stream will spread in time and merge together, rendering the signal-stream unintelligible. This limits the length of fiber that a signal can be sent down without regeneration.
